is that "run as program" with the properties tab? That was the only thing I wasn't sure about but yes, I have that checked. If there's another change (came from debian here sorry) I'm not aware of it.Thanks

The permissions are Owner "root"access "read and write"group "root"access "read only" Others "read only"Allow this file to run as program is checked.

For that type of program, I would normally edit (as root, of course) /etc/rc.d/rc.local and add the commands to the end of it. For instance, to set the hard drive parameters I want, and to run tmpreaper to clear old files from /tmp, I have this at the bottom of /etc/rc.d/rc.local:

EDIT 2: Ok I got it. I was having a moment and just had a typo. Honestly the command will work either way by the rc.syndaemon script, or.....putting it in rc.local. Thanks guys.....

EDIT: I guess it's at least sort of working now. I did put it at the end of rc.local under where it says to add more here. At least as I type this it's not jumping all over the place. Thanks again for all of the help you folks have given me.

ummmmm, NO...... I'm not exactly sure how to put that there. Would it just be the command I want or the script or what?

I've actually eliminated the "sleep 5" for right now. Do you think that is better than just making the rc.syndaemon file in rc.d? I'm still sort of testing it, in my old distro I needed that sleep 5 or it wouldn't work. Here I'm still checking both ways yet. Thanks.

Edit: I wanted to add this is a short script for disabling the touch pad while typing. I know some distro's have various "things" that do that but this is what Ive found works the best for me. I just was getting tired of typing the command in terminal every time after start up...Thanks I'm gonna keep testing both with the sleep command and without it. Thanks a million guys.
